Ace's biped. Views are my own.

Looks like @AngieCraigMN touched a nerve when she ripped the Trump admin a new one.

Always love to hear JD Vance's interest in programs benefiting farmers like SNAP as he is a major investor in a company that sells American farmland to foreign investors. https://t.co/4VxX7N4ugk

[JD Vance @JDVance]

If the fraud rate is really as low as Democrats claim, why are they fighting so hard to hide the data? Why not just work with USDA to audit and validate where the money is going? Their resistance to us going after fraud is part of why these programs ballooned in the first place.

Rep. Angie Craig demolishes Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins: "Joe Biden is no longer the president. Mr. Trump is. Your party controls Congress. You own these numbers at this point. I'm sick of hearing you blame an administration from a year and half ago. You own every single bit of this."

@ZacMcCrary There should also be more ranch on tasting menus

[Delegate Adrian Boafo @AdrianBoafoMD]

Honored to have the endorsement of U.S. Senator Angela Alsobrooks. Senator Alsobrooks has spent her entire career fighting for working families — and now she's taken that fight to Washington. She knows this moment calls for leaders who will stand up to Donald Trump's attacks on our communities. And she's trusting me to be that fighter in Congress. That means everything.

I'm so honored to announce that Governor Wes Moore has endorsed my campaign for Congress. It's a full circle moment for me when I first met him in 2022. From workforce development, to poverty alleviation, Governor Moore understands what it means to leave no Marylander behind, and I'm honored to have his support here in the 5th District.

Choosing to shoot innocent Minnesotans exercising their rights instead of protecting Americans says everything.

Sickening but not surprising.

@RachelNPetri Ah the classic "if we had more time we would have sucked less, we swear" excuse

[Angie Craig @AngieCraigMN]

If Trump and ICE Barbie think they can keep me from doing MY JOB to conduct oversight at federal detention centers like the one I was denied full access to today — they couldn’t be more wrong.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Rep. Angie Craig: "We were told because this facility is being funding by the 'Big Beautiful Bill,' not the congressional appropriations act, that we would not be allowed to enter the facility. That's complete nonsense ... I informed them they were violating the law. They said they didn't care."

[Andrew Solender @AndrewSolender]

Footage shows Democratic Rep. Angie Craig having a heated exchange with Republican Whip Tom Emmer, both of Minnesota, on the House floor.

Craig has strongly denounced the ICE shooting in Minneapolis, while Emmer defended the officers.

More on what was said in a story TK.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

When I was 22 years old, I commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. I upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school, four space shuttle flights at NASA, and every day since I retired – which I did after my wife Gabby was shot in the head while serving her constituents.

In combat, I had a missile blow up next to my jet and flew through anti-aircraft fire to drop bombs on enemy targets. At NASA, I launched on a rocket, commanded the space shuttle, and was part of the recovery mission that brought home the bodies of my astronaut classmates who died on Columbia. I did all of this in service to this country that I love and has given me so much.

Secretary Hegseth’s tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President’s posts saying I should be arrested, hanged, and put to death.

If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution.

*always* have a nice bottle of scotch around. Since she poured me my first scotch (hated it at the time...), drinking one in her honor tonight. 🥃

Thank you and rest easy, boss.

[Dave Chase @dchase]

They say never meet your heroes... fuck that. Meet them, work for them, travel with them and learn everything you can from them.

Sad to hear about Jane's passing but feeling grateful I got a chance to know her. She was an incredible woman who lived one hell of a life.

[Dave Chase @dchase]

Her compassion and empathy for people and animals was unparalleled and inspired millions.

She also taught me so much personally -- pursue your mission relentlessly, believe in people, empower the people around you, have some fun along the way and always...

[Jeff Merkley @JeffMerkley]

We're in a critical moment for our rights, our democracy, and a future where every American can thrive. I've been thinking about how I can best keep fighting with you for a country that's fair, free, and built for all of us. Watch below to find out!

*bets all the money on @BohannanIowa*

[Rob Sand @RobSandIA]

Hey Iowa, I’m running to be your next Governor.

[Angie Craig @AngieCraigMN]

We’ve got a hell of a fight on our hands.

Trump and Musk are burning our government down. Rising costs threaten the middle class. And for too many, hard work isn't paying off like it used to.

We must do better. I’m running for U.S. Senate—to fight for Minnesota. And to win.

[Dave Chase @dchase]

Republicans: Actblue making it easy for people to donate $5 is a threat to democracy

Also Republicans: funnelling taxpayer Medicaid funds into political committees is no big deal
